~Cana’s POV:Zane’s kiss was hungry and greedy, engulfing me like a fire burning out of control.It was a kiss that took the breath away from my lungs, caused my brain to short-circuit, and had the heat pooling in my stomach spread out.I had never been kissed so passionately, or even been kissed like this before.The sensation was intoxicating and I couldn’t bring myself to stop it.When his tongue brushed against the seam of my lips, I was hesitant, but I couldn’t deny him, coupled with the compelling scent of his pheromones, it was hard not to get swallowed by him. The kiss lasted only a few seconds before it was broken, and Zane pulled back, a string of saliva connecting our lips, but before it could break, he leaned forward, licking my lips and making me shudder.He pulled back, his gaze fixed on mine.I wasn’t sure what to make of his actions, but the fact that the kiss had taken my breath away was enough to let me know that he wasn’t planning on letting me go.“Cana,” His voic
Cana POV “You look beautiful, Mia said softly as she touched the veil on my head. I smiled at my beautiful reflection. “Thank you,” I replied, beaming with a smile. She smiled at me “You are welcome Cana, soon to be Mrs Axel, Luna of the Manhattan Park.” she said, giving me a mocking bow with a smile. I laughed as a pink hue covered my cheek at the thought of being Axel's wife, my long-time crush. It was a dream come true. I slowly inhaled the cool air that came from the air conditioner and my fingers shook as I adjusted the white dress I wore. The material of the wedding gown was so beautiful. I touched the diamond necklace he had given me as my wedding present. An overwhelming feeling rushed through me. I can't believe that this day is finally here. Ever since I had discovered that Alex loved me, my joy had increased with every passing day. I turned to my other friends who were in the room smiling at me. They had been helping me to dress up “Awwn she is blushing,” Mirabel sai
Cana pov I raised my head to look at the wolf standing before me. He had three other wolves with him at his back. They wore a teasing smile. Goosebumps crept into my skin as he stared at me. “Oh my gosh, she is crying,” he said, mocking me. He turned to his friends and they burst into laughter. '`Nice dress' ', another one said as he joined the other wolf they squatted to my level. His face was laced with a grin. "Special occasion?" He asked and they burst into cruel laughter again. I bit my fingers with my teeth. Something I always did when I was nervous. An uneasy feeling washed within me and I was sure that I did not leave here on time. They were going to do something stupid. My body shook with fear. I can't be rejected and raped or killed on the same day. Please moon goddess, help me. I prayed. “It seems she is the rejected Luna,” one said and the rest started laughing. “I can't imagine our Alpha wanted to marry a weak wolf like you. Tell me between you and us, the
CHAPTER THREECana povShe picked up the call a few minutes later. Her voice sounded worried. “Have you seen her?” She asked him.“Yes,” he said as he gave me the phone.I pressed the phone to my ear “Hello” I said in a whisper.“Cana! I have been so worried about you. Where did you go? When are you coming back?” She asked.I cleaned the tears that helplessly rolled down my cheeks avoiding her boyfriend's gaze. I would not want anyone pitying me.“I'm fine Mia. I just want to stay away for a while. Till the shame and everything dies down” I said.“Noo cana, you can't leave me. You did not even pack some clothes. What about your parents? Aren't you going to visit their tomb?” She asked, almost breaking into tears.“Mia I will be fine,” I said even though I knew what she said was true. I needed to see my parents and tell them what happened. That their daughter was rejected and that no one has loved me since they died.“Please cana, come home. I will be here with you” she said with a tre
Chapter four.Cana pov.Immediately I entered the car, my eyes roamed around the car for a while before it landed on him. Only to find out that he was staring at me.“Are you okay?” He asked with a soft tone.“Well, I was rejected on my wedding day, but I am over it now and I am fine,” I said.A smile shadowed his lips; he stretched forth his hands. “Lycan Zane,” he introduced.I took his hands with a smile. I already knew his name. He was a lycan. No wonder Alpha Alex always made sure he gave him the best treatment possible.Lycans were also considered rulers of a pack, but they were higher than. Alphas. He started the car and started driving in a comfortable silence.“How long did they banish you?” He asked, suddenly breaking the silence.“Three years”He nodded and fixed his attention on the car again. ain “Do you miss home? I mean, your friends or guardians. I could talk to Alex to take you back,” he offered.On a normal no note, I would have taken that offer but right now, no. Th
~Cana’s POV:Hearing the words that had been spoken by Zane’s uncle was like a punch to the gut. For the second time tonight, the sick feeling of betrayal washed over me. I looked between Zane and his uncle, not sure what to say after hearing that Zane was betrothed. I didn’t have anything to say. The man In front of me was a total stranger, except for the times when I caught a glimpse of him visiting the pack house and the well-known fact that he was a Lycan, I knew nothing about him. So, who was I to feel betrayed? “I want her gone,” His uncle hissed. “Uncle Callahan-“ Zane tried to speak up, but his uncle cut him off. “She’s not worth it, Zane. I want her gone and you out in the main parlor as soon as possible.”Callahan, as I now knew his name, glanced once in my direction, throwing me a nasty look that I had too familiar with in less than a day, before storming out. Zane sighed as soon as the door slammed shut and turned to me. “You…have a betroth?” The words rolled off my
After changing into a more presentable outfit, I checked out of the motel with Zane carrying my things. He threw the bags into the trunk of his car and held the door open for him to step in. Although I was still keeping my guard up against him, I whispered words of gratitude under my breath and sat down.Once Zane got behind the wheel, he spoke up. “I know a good restaurant around here,” He turned to face me briefly and said. “Why don’t we go there for breakfast, then I’ll explain.”I didn’t see a problem with that. The faster I found out what he wanted from me, the sooner I would be able to get away from him and start planning my new life. Three whole years of living alone and away from the pack…I wondered how I was going to cope.But I sure as hell wasn’t going to go back and beg them. “Sure,” I nodded. “Let’s do that.”Zane started the engine and drove off. Soon, we arrived at a fancy-looking restaurant. All the buildings around the restaurant towered over it, but the décor and
~Cana’s POV:I sat in the center of the queen-sized bed of a motel, staring absentmindedly at the two cards in front of me. The first was the black card Zane had given me and the second was his business card. But the latter didn’t disturb me as much as the former did. For crying out loud, it was a freaking black card, with an unlimited spending limit. And, imagine the surprise that washed over me when I saw the balance. The numbers were uncountable, unlike anything Axel had ever entrusted to me. This was one of the reasons why this card bothered me so much. Groaning, I allowed my body to fall back onto the bed and curled on my side. ‘All this was too much,’ I silently complained.As if being banished from my pack, being humiliated on my wedding day, and getting rejected by my mate wasn’t enough, the moon goddess had decided to do what? Throw in a little funny trope into my already sad life? Groaning, again, I turned and curled on the other side, seeking a certain amount of comfo
